A
Little Reflection
St.
Thomas Aquinas said, "In all things, look to the end." The "end" for Catholic
Christians is eternity where the
saints and angels dwell in perpetual adoration of the triune Godhead.
The lives of many saints tell us that it was by reading the lives of saints that their own conversion was brought about. We need all the encouragement and example available in order to grow in holiness and live the kind of life that will gain us eternal happiness and also will be a witness to those we interact with.

Our Lady shows us that by constant prayer we can be prepared for that moment when we are called to give an accounting of our lives. Fidelity and constancy will go a long way to the "end" we yearn for, eternity itself. Mary, our Mother, thank you for interceding for us.
